Systems Engineer - Diagnostics

This team member will:

• Work within the bounds of and with respect to the appropriate decision authorities, conduct the following design & integration focused scope:
• ●      Support the coordination of the design efforts outside of the cryostat owned by multiple System Responsible Officers (SRO) and Responsible Engineers (RE) to ensure consistency in approach and to avoid integration issues in shared spaces outside of the tokamak core structure
• ●      Facilitate the design integration of on/in-tokamak systems that are owned by Tokamak Interfacing Systems Responsible Engineers
• ●      Identify and support the addressing of cross-functional issues, tool development, and coordinate at the Ex-Vessel Integrated Product Team (IPT) meeting
• ●      Maintain the interface between the Tokamak CAD software (NX) and the plant CAD software (AVEVA) via workflows and tracking tools
• Work with relevant Diagnostic SROs and REs, conduct the following subsystem focused scope:
• ●      Coordinate, define, and control plasma diagnostic system interfaces with other tokamak and plant systems
• ●      Support the coordination of the design and execution of the “final mile” of plant side systems to connect to plasma diagnostic systems in the tokamak and diagnostic halls
• ●      Conduct impact assessments for and support the management of changes affecting technical baseline of the plasma diagnostics for impacts to scope, schedule, cost, performance, or interfacing systems
• ●      Support design review content development and the review of other design reviews for technical maturity, consistency, and accuracy
• ●      Conduct safety focused risk assessments on plasma diagnostic subsystems using failure modes analysis software and methods, and ensuring that risk mitigation plans are developed and implemented
• Where applicable, develop standard design guidance to facilitate a consistent approach for SPARC systems development
